Rimini FC 1912

Rimini Football Club 1912 is an Italian association football club based in Rimini, Emilia-Romagna that plays in the third-tier Serie C.

The original club was founded in 1912.

Their home ground is the 9786-seat Stadio Romeo Neri.

The club was firstly founded as Libertas Rimini in 1912 and four years later became independent as Rimini Football Club. Before the introduction of the classic red and white shirts, the club decided to use green and white kits for its first official match against Vis Pesaro.The 1929–30 season saw the building of the stadium still used by the club today; Stadio Romeo Neri. The club name was changed to Rimini Calcio in 1938 after a bankruptcy.

Rimini competed in regional leagues (the equivalent of the modern day Serie C system) for many years of their existence. They were unable to gain promotion to Serie B until 1976.

During the 1970s the club spent three seasons in Serie B, finishing in the bottom half of the table; they were relegated in 1978–79, but achieved promotion straight back up the following season. Rimini were relegated again during 1981–82, this time however, they did not achieve promotion back up straight away. Rimini spent the next twenty-four seasons in the Serie C league system, dropping as low as C2/C at one point.

However, the 2000s proved to be a brighter time for Rimini; they reached the C2/B playoffs six successive times before gaining promotion to C1/A. In 2004–05, they became Serie C champions (as well as Serie C1 Super Cup winners) and returned to Serie B for the first time since the early 1970s.

On 9 September 2006, Rimini gained the national news after having gained a shocking 1–1 home draw against Juventus FC, with Argentine attacking midfielder Adrián Ricchiuti scoring the equaliser, despite a sending off for Rimini midfielder Domenico Cristiano soon after the 1–0 Juventus lead. They even reached the top of Serie B by early 2007, but at the end of that season they were ranked 5th behind Juventus, Napoli, Genoa and Piacenza.
Two years later, Rimini Calcio has been relegated to Lega Pro Prima Divisione after losing the play-out against the former Ancona.
